On a Mission

Emily Kilui Kundu is a resident of Webuye town, and a member of Nyota Njema self help group in Bungoma County. She is currently serving her third loan and recently roofed her house which she moved in two months ago. Before she joined habitat, Emily was living in a two roomed mud house.

Through Habitat’s financial services, Emily has applied for electricity connection and hopes to complete her house in due course so as to continue enjoying the financial opportunities at Habitat. Emily is married to Protus Kisembe with whom they have one child. Emily’s main source of income is through cattle hawking. She buys a number of them depending on availability of funds and sells them at a profit during designated market days. This is an area that is male dominated but Emily has done the trade for three years and beaten the odds through hard work and the desire to succeed.

Emilly Kilui also farms sugarcane as her alternative source of income. “I am very grateful to Habitat for Humanity for enabling me acquire a good and decent house for my family. Surely, Habitat is fulfilling their mission of building houses, building hope,” said Emily.
